Zainab Johnson: Toxically Optimistic

Show type: Edinburgh Fringe 2025

Is it possible to be toxically optimistic? Zainab Johnson thinks so. Following her hit stand-up special Hijabs Off (Amazon Prime) and a sold-out run at Soho Theatre in London, Zainab's debut at this year's Edinburgh Fringe explores being charitable on dates, owning a gun but refusing to kill and a surprising friendship with a wild animal. 'Charisma and charm personified' **** (Chortle.co.uk). **** (Times). ***** (BroadwayWorld.com).
